Bad Writing - Tumblr Posts

Source: FallenGale She-ra review

Was just thinking about how legitimately devastated 2012 April gets in the face of loss and stuff. She adds a level of depth to the story sometimes with her emotional responses, where the other characters kind of just go on with their day until the situation resolves itself. Then I remembered she’s the only female main(ish) character and it’s probably a result of sexism rather than weirdly isolated good writing.

Ngl I didn’t expect 2012 April to have so much character and agency. She’s legitimately just cool and initially well written. But well, she’s Donnie’s love interest. (Which is a whole other problem this show has; it’s female characters might be actual characters, but they’re still accessories in the sense they were written into the story to be love interests first, no matter how much other shit they have going on…) That is to say the narrative is trying to drive her character into the ground by forcing romantic tension in near every scene Casey’s in with her, and making her lead on Donnie on with the will they won’t they bs. 2012 April isn’t bad; the writing’s bad to her. And it makes me quite peeved to see because they were doing so well.

Honestly, the episodes are set up so badly that you don't even get to hear what happened to who until they blow up a building, and then you're expected to believe you watched them buy the parts and build the bomb.

Thomas: (goes out of his way to make Chloe the most evil, irredeemable monster who is said to be 10x worse than Gabriel)

Also Thomas: (chooses Lila to be the new Butterfly Holder despite not doing any with her that makes her a successor to Hawk Moth)

The writing of Thomas “We Planned All of This From the Beginning” Astruc, ladies and gentlemen.

How to write a good metaphor

yall seemed to like my post on "how to write good horror" so i figured i should make another one of these.

1- do. not. explain. the. metaphor.

don't.

"oh but how will the audience know my deep and meaningful message- "

SOME PEOPLE WONT GET IT. if you explain what you mean then suddenly the metaphor won't be deep anymore. it becomes a generic forced message.

i know you are tempted to make a character infodump about everything, fucking don't.

followup on this:

2- a good metaphor should potentially have multiple interpretations.

"but i don't want people to get the wrong impression of the story!"

then you either need to make damn sure its an elegantly written metaphor, or none at all. the death of the author is the idea that everyone has their own vision of a story they read, rearguards of authors intent. you need to come to terms with this or else you won't improve your writing skills.

you need to trust that your audience is intelligent enough to understand the metaphor on their own without bashing them over the head with it. sometimes people misunderstand meaning, it is a fact of life.

The game little inferno was thought of as a metaphor about pollution, in which later the creators went out to say it was actually about capitalism and wasting your life with things like exploitative mobile games. you just need make it SUBTLE and hope for the best.

3- The story/gameplay/etc should inform the metaphor(and sometimes reference real life examples)

To mention little inferno again, the "you must wait x amount of time for in-game item to be given to you" is a mirror of mobile games in the real world that use timers to leach money from you.

another example: analogue horror.

broken old technology is scary on its own, but many good analogue horror artists tend to use this to the advantage.

analogue horror can be used as a metaphor for dying trends and technology, like how in the 30's through 70's we used asbestos in the walls. Analogue horror makes a great parralel to this idea (see Blue_channel by gooseworx for a good example.) . the audience questions WHY this is on an old CRT tv and not just a smartphone, perhaps to imply this was an event that happened years ago.

undertale is another example, where most RPG's encourage you to fight and to level up, undertale uses this as a simple metaphor about obsessive control and being cruel to get an arbitrary achievement (i recommend the escapist's video on "why i didn't review undertale" on youtube for way better examples)

tldr: a metaphor is stronger if you lightly reference real life occurances and implement your metaphor in the medium presented.

4- the curtains are blue because they are blue.

not everyone is going to understand your metaphor

and not everyone is going to notice every single little metaphor you add to your story.

remember those teachers that would constantly stretch to imply something in a story is a metaphor and that the curtains are blue because of some deep metaphor for death and sadness and shit?

those teachers are full of it. ignore them.

metaphors are allowed to be simple. not every metaphor needs to be a hyper deep depth defying world changing thing. I could even argue a bunch of small metaphors connected to each other can be better than one big metaphor depending on your story.

relax. don't think too much about it because your average audience member won't.

5- study movies, tv, books, games, etc and understand why their metaphors work.

don't fall into that "the curtains are blue because of a deep message" English teacher mindset mind you.

"but how do i tell what is and isn't a metaphor?" you may ask

simple. trust your gut. you won't understand everything you come across but the human brain has a way of telling what is and isn't a metaphor in stories.

(spoiler about bugsnax)

I could argue Bugsnax is a metaphor about drug abuse and addiction. The characters have personality traits commonly associated with people vulnerable to drug addiction. An athlete, a hippy, a married couple going through a rough spot in their marriage with the threat of divorce, a mentally ill person with trauma and paranoia, etc.

It isn't obvious, many people may disagree with me, but you can't deny that there are signs i may be right.

(end of spoiler) the point i am trying to make: don't stretch to find a metaphor when you don't see one. if you are curious google other people's theories and make your own opinion. metaphors are hard and you will learn over time. and finally 6- do not ever do "it was all just a dream" or "the character is secretly in a coma" etc this applies to writing in general but it is still related to metaphors. the only time i have seen this done well is driver san francisco, but what it did right was A- make it so the players can guess ahead of time the mystery, such as the radio saying voices of your character in the hospital, or if you zoomed out you could hear a heart monitor. and B- it didn't completely un-do the entire story. that is my core issue with this trope. it either wastes your time un-doing the entire story readers worked hard to finish, or it is just nonsensical and terrible. "dora the explorer is actually in purgatory!" "spongebob is a metaphor for the 7 deadly sins!" "ash is in a coma and that is why he never ages! " ooooor it is a cartoon and you are forcing meaning that doesn't exist in something that doesn't even imply it. the world being a bit weird is not enough to be a metaphor for anything. If you want to make a good metaphor: do more effort than just slapping a lazy "it was all a coma" thing at the end. Like horror, stuff like this needs to be built up properly. also consider authors intent. I understand death of the author and all of that, but do you really think a retired marine biologist made spongebob to be a complex metaphor about sinners in hell ? (rip Stephen Hillenburg btw. we didn't deserve him.) thank you for reading, hope this helps. and please, learn to understand the tropes of metaphors before you attempt to make the story of a generation. edit- adding a couple more things i forgot 7- "the darkness is going to destroy the land or whatever!" i see this used all the time. spooky wookey dark shadowy bits going to destroy a land and is the hero's generic bad thing to fight. stop it. it is not a deep and complex metaphor about depression or whatever the hell you are on about. its lazy and stupid. 8- a story should stand up on its own regardless if audience members understand the metaphor or not I don't like Gris. it is a very pretty game with lovely visuals But also the entire story is just the main character moping about artistically and shit and go on about how artistically sad and dramatic this all is. if i don't understand the story without understanding the metaphor, then your story and your metaphor sucks. an example of a metaphor done well: spiritfairer without the metaphor, it is a simple game about running a traveling boat. even if you didn't care too much about the deeper meaning it is a cute story and the gameplay is fun (spoiler) if you look deeper, it can also be taken as a metaphor about greif and learning to accept your loved ones will one day die. things like the boat being filled with empty houses you can't remove is a good example of this. (end of spoiler) your story needs to stand up on its own to be good. don't use a metaphor as a crutch.

aight here is a response to @broken-horn-of-equius . they made a pretty good point I would like to give the best kind of advice for all forms of art: There are exceptions to everything, even exceptions itself. just because something is universally seen as cliche or bad, doesn't mean it is always the case. anything can work if you write it well enough.

The best thing you can do as an artist, whether it be writing or art, is to learn the rules of the craft and why they exist, and then learn how to purposefully break those rules.

some of the best works of art shows confidence in the way it was created and an understanding of the medium it presents. This is why some things last generations without losing cultural relevance. The writers either invented the trope in the first place, or they were confident enough and knowledgeable enough to understand how to use the trope properly. The other day a friend of mine came to me saying they were struggling to have the confidence to make their writing project work with a new character. They told me they were scared of failing and making something bad. listen up my friendly internet fucks: You also need to accept failure. Cringe culture is dead and people who harass you for anything harmless are losers you should not listen to. failure is how you learn the rules of the art you are making Do not be afraid to shit out absolute hot garbage until you actually kinda make something good-ish. Cringe is dead, absolutely go hog wild and fail as fast as you can to learn as much as you can. Get jiggy with it. Violate those rules! Artistic anarchy! you can only learn by breaking the rules over and over again until you understand what they mean! I would like to coin a phrase.

one must shit something out a million times before pulling something genuinely good out of their ass

-Katapotato, 2023. When i die put that on my grave. thank you hope you appreciate my response and/or feel horrified enough that this memory is burned into your brain forever. have a good morevenight.

How to write good horror.

1- DON'T EXPLAIN WHAT THE HORROR IS. DON'T EXPLAIN ANYTHING. no context = more scary. "oh but it is just a ghost- " YES. you know that, I know that, but things are way more scary if you don't explain it. let your audience scare themselves trying to figure it out! the first FNAF game didn't explain anything it was just "ok these machines are kind aggro". that is part of what made it popular! (And truthfully this reason is why i dislike the other games in the series) i can't name how many horror movies i immediately lost interest in because it was explained. "oh no! there is blood dripping from the walls! " its demons or ghosts or whatever. you explained it. it isn't scary now that you explained the joke. if you have to explain what it is, explain it at the END of the story or near the climax at best. (or better yet, don't explain at all) 2- restraint is key i know it is tempting to show organs and blood dripping from the walls and someone eating out a corpse or whatever but don't outright show that kind of stuff ALL THE TIME or else your audience becomes desensitized to it, and if horror fans are reading/watching your work, chances are they are going to think this is weaksauce. you need to be SUBTLE when building up suspense in your story. don't show the real scary bits until the end of the buildup/ 3- normalicy and familiarity is key i am going to use bugsnax as an example. bugsnax has no gore and can be considered child friendly, but what made bugsnax scare people is that it has the facaude of a cutesy little game. doki doki lit club has a simmular principle where its like a normal dating sim but you are caught off guard and things feel off. this is a valuable tool. 4- be original and understand why the more popular ones are popular in the first place everyone has done analogue horror. why ? because we are all so used to modern technology that older televisions and tech seem kinda creepy. Blue_channel by gooseworks is one of my favorites. It gets right to the point, and while it DOES explain what the product is, it doesn't go "oooh death and scary!!! oooooooh!" it lets the audience make up their own horrifying reason as to what is happening here. saying "oooooooh look murder your parents ooooh!" isn't scary, and putting a glitchy tv filter over it isn't going to make it more scary. and finally 5- describe the unfamiliar i know i just said familiarity is key but that is only 1/2 of the equation. Everywhere at the end of time depicts the sounds of memory degrading in an alzheimers patients. this is an experience that no one could relate to except for those who are experiencing it (and sadly, those people are either dead or mentally comatose) this is also why lovecraft horror is loved, because we can only imagine so much before the lack of understanding drives you insane. hope this helps, for the love of all that is good, please stop writing bad horror.



what is your least favorite film?

i am sure some of yall follow me for my writing advice, so for fun why not reblog your least favorite film and why? my least favorite film is under the cut, plus a recommendation for a BETTER movie that tries to do the same thing but succeeds.

my least favorite film is this crappy Netflix movie called "The Shack". I hate it because it is horribly put together, anecdotal, and it's basically religious fanfiction where the moral is "judging people for being child murderers is bad and you should feel bad for wanting to avenge your dead children", with absolutely no good reasoning as to WHY it's bad. the characters are basically objects to press on the message of the movie and don't seem to have anything interesting about them, and if they DO have something interesting it is because they are unlikable turds with no substance. disclaimer: I am agnostic so i do not have any strong religious opinions on things. I don't care how religious a film is, i judge on quality. If you want GOOD religious media where it dives into why god allows bad things to exist, I recommend Brian Almighty. Its this really funny movie about how Morgan Freeman as god goes on vacation and leaves the job of being "god" and all his powers to this whiny douchebag named Brian. Its funny, it has that early 2000's funk if you are into that, and overall its an entertaining film and I liked it. and if you want something more serious, eh just watch Good Omens. I haven't started on season 2 yet but i heard its good. What is your least favorite movie and why ? feel free to disagree with me on anything, preferably with words and not pitchforks.

𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: yuuka yaps about the first time she met yui

the characters are probably ooc :((

The first time I saw Yui she was standing in the doorway of the library, her silhouette framed by the soft glow of the setting sun. She looked like a character out of a painting, lost in the pages of her book, oblivious to the world around her. Her hair, a cascade of blonde waves, fell just shy of her waist, and her eyes, pink and hypnotic, held the weight of many (of what I didn’t know). She was a solitary figure, a silent sentinel guarding the gateway to knowledge, and I found myself drawn to her, like a moth to a flame.

I approached her tentatively, my heart racing in my chest like a caged bird desperate for release. She looked up as I neared, (was that fear in her eyes?) her gaze softening slightly. I stumbled over my words, trying to form a coherent sentence that would somehow justify my presence in her vicinity. "Hi," I managed, my voice a mere whisper. "I'm Yuuka."

Yui's eyes searched mine for a brief moment, a flicker of curiosity in their depths. "I'm Yui," she replied, her voice a melodious blend of honey and whispers. She closed her book, the cover revealing an intricate pattern of crosses and religous symbols, and tucked it under her arm. "Is there something you need?“ she asked, a gentle smile playing at the corners of her lips.

I shuffled my feet, unsure of what to say next. The air between us felt thick with the scent of dusty pages and the promise of untold stories. "I was just looking for a good book," I lied, trying to seem nonchalant (bro is NOT nonchalant dreadhead). "Do you have any recommendations?" I fiddles my thumbs slightly trying to seem cool (why? I didn’t even know her?).

She tucked a peice of her hair behind her ears and blinked up at me “Well.. This is a library, so I’m sure you’ll find something. But if you’re looking for something specific, I might be able to help. What’s your taste?” She spoke, and I felt my face heat up slightly.

I had to think quickly. What did I like? The only books that came to mind were the ones that kept me company in the quiet of my room – the ones that filled my heart with adventure and whisked me away from reality. "I enjoy fantasy, I guess. Something with a strong protagonist and a bit of romance."

Yui nodded thoughtfully, her gaze drifting to the rows of books behind me. "Ah, in that case, have you read 'The Nightingale's Tale'?" she suggested, her voice light and airy. "It's a bit obscure, but it has a fascinating heroine and a touch of the whimsical."

I furrowed my brows. "No, I haven't. Is it any good?"

Yui's smile grew warmer, and she stepped aside to allow me into the library. "It's one of my favorites," she said, her eyes sparkling before they dimmed suddenly. "Ah but…“ She paused.

Her sudden hesitation made me curious. "What is it?" I prodded gently leaning forward, therefore getting closer to her.

She perked up her pupils shrinking in fear (what for?) “I’m so sorry!“ I said waving my hands around, “I shouldn’t have invaded your personal space!“

Yui's expression remained unchanged for a moment before she chuckled lightly, the sound as delicate as a porcelain bell. "Don't worry, it's just… my living situation is a bit… complicated." Her eyes grew distant for a brief second, and I couldn't help but feel like there was a deeper meaning hidden behind her words.

“Don’t you live with the Sakamaki’s“ I thought aloud looking down at Yui.

“Y-yes,“ She breathed out, looking down mournfully before seemingly catching herself and smiling slightly “But they’re really nice honest!“ she tried to convince herself more than me.

“If you say so,” I replied, trying to push aside the uneasy feeling her words had brought. "So, where can I find 'The Nightingale's Tale'?"

Yui took a deep breath, and smiled up at me, “Well you can follow me!“

hahha brain go brr..

Yu Jie remembers her first life or whatever (more like the prolouge part) 😼😼😼🐺🐺🐺

I woke up in a coffin, it was a cramped and dark like coffins should be.

I was crying for who? I don’t remember. Was it my mother? Do i have a mother, do I have a family?

But then he found me, Grim, the cause of all my problems (i geuss maybe taht’s a lie, Crowley did a lot to).

And he set my coffin on fire, that idiot.

I barely survived and I had burns on my arms, hands, and legs that couldn’t go away. And it hurt. Where was I? Night Raven College, a masked individual named Crowley would tell me.

He caught Grim in a rope, and smiled. His yellow eyes glinting in the darkness of the hallway. He seemed nice, but then again first impressions aren’t everything.

I was escorted to the mirror room, with the Dark Mirror looking down at me.

I know I saw pity in those eyes, and if it pitied me why couldn’t it help me?

It called me weak, pathetic, useless, with no shape or form.

It made me... actually I don’t remember that either. But Grim got loose, and set fire to the room (yay! more burns on my body 😃😃)

The Queen captured him, while beauty mark applauds the Queen (kinda gayyy...)

The crow tried to scold me about having the monster, even though he did not belong to me.

They tried to send me back home but the Mirror ’did not know’ where it was.

It was a whole thing.

The Crow sent me to a ’ramshackle’ of a dorm, which was named Ramshackle (aptly named, I thought).

The monster was there too, for some reason.

Do you know how the crow rewarded me, after suffering in a dorm, taking care of a pathetic bitch-baby, and three ghosts?

...Cleaning Duty.

I had to clean some statues in a big courtyard when Ace came along.

He mocked me and the monster but I mostly cared when he mocked the monster (I was weird back then).

The monster retaliated by burning one of the statues 😄😄😄. Hahha, and the crow was nearby to! Hahahhahaha.

We had to clean 100 (?!) windows and Ace didn’t even come!

We found him (thanks to a very nice portrait) walking to his dorm.

We pleaded for the sweetie Deuce (!!!!) who was nearby to stop him.

He did! With a cauldron... Which fell directly on top of Ace. Did he crush Ace’s organs ...if not, how strong is Ace’s bones?

Ace started yelling at Deuce, and Deuce started yelling back and Grim ran away. 😃😃😃😃.

My life is super awesome!

Note: i was too lazy to finish it 😞😞😞

yapping about my yuus lore (more specifically yui)

TW: abuse, neglectful parents, toxic parents, unhealthy relationships, yui’s mom, bad people,

𝐘𝐮𝐢:

She was born in a houshold where she and her sister had to compete for her mother’s love.

A sister she didn’t even know about until she was 16.

Her mother constantly berates Yui and uplifts Naomi (her sister), while her father just turns a blind eye to all this.

She dyes her hair blonde to fit in with the rest of her family bcs then rumors would spur about her being ’adopted’

She went to a private school where she bullied countless ppl with her friend Sally (twisted from Sabrina)

One of her closest friends Alexandre (twisted from Adrien) ’unfriened her’ bcs of this

After that she went through such a depressive arc after him ’breaking up’ with her, that eventually Sally got tired of her moping and unfriended her too (i have no other word for this, im sorry 😭😭😭)

Bcs of this a girl named Larissa eventually got closer to her making her feel loved and happy....

Until she used her to make another girl named Maria (twisted off of Marrinette) kicked out of school (she was taken back in ofc) but the whole school loved Maria she was like everyone’s top crush!

And everyone assumed Yui orchestrated it, who else? Surely not Larissa the kind girl that donates to charities, friends with everybody, and straight-A student!

Yui was just the most likely perpatror, she was outcasted for weeks her own mother taking away more and more of her necesities every day, her sister wants to help but can’t while her ’father’ won’t help yui out he wouldn’t let Yui ’corrupt’ Naomi’s pure soul...

Then she was sent to Twisted Wonderland with a manic pixie girl, a sickly victorian child, and an ex-actor/model/still totally an A-grade hottie.

Lmao

When Thana was young there was one thing she knew for sure. Never bond with others.

Bonding meant telling others her thoughts and secrets. It would do her no good to befriend others.

It was shoved down her throat by relatives and family friends, and over time she started to believe it.

Until Idia and Melaina(twst pain oc!!!😜😜😝😝) came into her life.

She loved them and thought they loved her too!

Until the day he died. Thana disn’t think he actually belive her! It wasn’t her fault! It wasn’t her fault.

At least that’s what she told herself.

Idia was in shambles, he wouldn’t talk to them anymore and they weren’t allowed inside.

She knew he hated her, and she didn’t blame him either! She hated her for this too... Melaina tried to talk to her but Thana blocked her calls. Melaina didn’t deserve her.

Until eventually... they stopped coming.

Thana couldn’t believe it. Her friends left her! They left her. They left her! They were horrible she couldn’t believe them!

They all lost contact for years. And Thana was happy! For sure! Who needs those losers anyway!

Until that carriage came. A carriage to Night Raven College.

Fuck.

𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃:

It’s hard, hard to have a mom who’s dead, be seen as dumb and spoiled, and be dumb and spoiled.

Unfortunately Daddy, doesn’t think so. He pushes me to greater things, and tells me I can be great. But... Can I? I can beleive Tracy (random tiana oc cameo) can but not me...

She’s smart, pretty, cool, and great at cooking.

I wouldn’t mind her being my Prince Charming, but I don’t have one. I won’t ever have one. I’m just that unremarkable.

𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐒:

Has ADHD

Loves Deuce (i dunno if you could tell)

Wants to be a fairy-tale princess

May be surprising to some but has many connections with the upper class and royalty to to her kind and fun-loving personality

Had a small crush on Silver and even confessed! But he (kindly) rejected her

Tagging!!!

’She’s beautiful...’

That was the single thought echoing in Deuce’s head as he tried not to stare at Isabella drooling slightly on his shoulder.

Hypothetically, if he was just like Ace a stupid fu-flipping jerk he would push her off waking her up from her sleep. But he was not Ace, he was Deuce Spade, and unlike Ace he actually had a crush on Isabella.

So if he pushed her off it would ruin the 0.00000000000000001 chance he even had with her!

And he really liked her. 

He liked the way her bangs framed her face perfectly, he liked the way her eyes softened whenever she saw Grim, he just l- no loved her. And everything about her was- was stunning to him.

But how could a girl like that, like an idiot like him...

+ BONUS

The next day...

“Oi! You guys in here!“ A whiny Ace pushed through open the door before stopping in his tracks at what he saw.

“Pfft-“ He giggled, “What the hell!“ He brought out his phone and took a few pictures of the imagine in front of him.

Which was Isabella drooling all over Deuce’s shoulder and Deuce doing the same thing but over her head.

’This is gonna be good blackmail material.’

If you're ever worried about whether your writing is too self indulgent, I just want you to remember that Sharknado had 5 sequels. I'm only partway through watching Sharknado 6: It's About Time, but already they've traveled through time and ridden a pteronadon into a Sharknado so they could use the magic teleportation portal inside of it to travel forward in time to King Arthur's time, where they are currently battling a Sharknado full of fire-breathing dragon sharks with Excalibur, which is a chainsaw sword that calls lightning. You're fine. In fact, be a little more self indulgent if anything.

──IT’S UNUSUAL. The way you see through every part of him. Staring into the depths of his soul and seeing him for what he is- human. Making feel more human and seen than he ever was before. You see past his flaws, gazing into the most vulnerable parts of him- accepting him for all he is.

You become his light, brightening his darkest days with your magic ways. All of your cheesy moments that even make you laugh in embarrassment at your behavior becomes the favorite parts of his day. The moments where he can admire you smiling with him next to you.

He hates how you know exactly what to do when he’s at his lowest, reassuring him and listening to all his problems. The things he’s keep buried away deep inside of him spilling out when you’re near because he feels so secure and safe in your presence.

You pull his hand, taking him to the other side of happiness– shedding him from his former shell of a person a building him up to a better person. Katsuki can’t help but in be in awe whenever he looks at you, wondering what he must’ve done to end up with someone like you.

No matter how undeserving he feels of you, you’re always by his side, acting as his beacon of light.

(pls spare me this is my first time writing something like this n feel free to give tips and opinions on how to portray bakugo! I basically gave up on this bc it’s been a draft for so long but wtvr it’s done now ig)

Remembering that time when Draco was forced to Crucio someone and hated every minute of it while Harry willingly Crucio-ed a Death Eater because he spat on McGonagall and almost jizzed his pants about it. And yet Draco's character and dignity were completely trampled over while Harry was called gallant or whatever and put on a pedestal.

Funny how Draco showed more capacity for change in two books than Harry in seven.

For the first time in months—maybe years— everything feels quiet. The sounds of crickets and the swish of the water from the nearby lake fills the silence. They've just finished a hunt, the adrenaline wearing off as they sip their beers. There's no stress, no tense muscles and no fear. It's quiet, for the first time in a long time.

The brothers relish in it, knees bumping into the others on the hood of the impala. (They'll use the excuse that there isn't much room for the two of them, but they both know it isn't true.)

They don't talk. They listen to the sound of rushing water and Dean listens to his brother breathe, slow and measured. Calm. There is no threat, there is nothing for them to worry about. At least not in the moment.

Dean has never been good at that, forgetting his stresses and being able to relax. But his brother, his Sammy, makes it easier. Just being by his side and knowing he's okay, that he's alive, makes him calmer.
